Hansi Flick (sack) watch

[Suedesi]

While this is premature as he's on the verge of a treble in his first season, I'm pretty sure that when/if Bayern starts choking up, Kalle will start thinking about a successor. There will be no room for sentimentality or feeling around it, the coach is not bigger than the club.

The point I'm trying to make is that as good as Flick is/ has been, the moment he doesn't perform up to expectations, he is expendable. English fans/media call it 'classless' sacking a winning manager, I call it ruthless and pragmatic. Bayern sacked a double winning manager in Kovač and are now 9 months later on the verge of a treble. There's no reason to reward someone for winning last year. So when the time comes, Flick will be moved on and someone else will step in.

Which brings me to my other point - nevermind, this is not a sack Ole thread...

 

[Zoo]

Yeah this is a shit thread.

 

[Acrobat7]

Yeah this is a shit thread.

I second this.
Can we please move to the „If Adriana Lima calls me I might pick up“-thread?

 

[charlenefan]

WTF?

 

[Piratesoup]

We should open a "Thread lock watch" thread

 

[SirAnderson]

In before the /

 

[Eddy_JukeZ]

I feel like this is a Ole sack watch thread masked as a Flick sack watch thread.

Clever by the OP.

[Berbaclass]

Das is nicht gut ja

Why is this his first managerial job in what, over a decade?

His first head coach job, period.

 

[JPRouve]

Suedesi Sack Watch would be a better title.

 

[Lay]

I thought he managed Hoffenheim? My mistake

 

[paulscholes18]

A bit random??? He’s doing a great job so far

 

[GDaly95]

Nothing against the OP, but this forum is on its fecking knees honestly

 

[paulscholes18]

He did

 

[E-mal]

And now our watch begins!

 

[Piratesoup]

He did

Ah, my mistake. First head coaching job at the highest level, then.

 

[100]

Yes there are so many similarities between our current situation and Bayern Munich.

 

[Paula]

shall we now create a sack watch for every single coach?

 

[shahzy]

After his team, then watching our team, it makes me think that for how good Ole is with mentality and whatnot, he doesnt have the knowhow of creating a system and making players play within that system. Which leads me to think that he'll never be good enough to get over the final hump (Semi final) or just fall short in the title even with better players. Progressive managers on here get ridiculed but if Nagelsman is available i'd like to see him brought in. We need to move on from trying to play like Sir Alex did. That was 15-20 years ago. Football has moved on where it was all about blood and guts.

 

[Charles Miller]

This is beyond absurd.

 

[Nani Nana]

Fred was good tonight but this thread is poor.

 

[izec]

Jinxing it, i agree

 

[Mogget]

Someone should also make a sack watch thread for the new Barca coach. Whoever it ends up being.

 

[MVBDX]

Every coach would eventually get sacked or get tired/lose motivation at some point, this is dumb.

 

[TrustInOle]

Suedesi Sack Watch would be a better title.

 

[Aboutreika18]

Suedesi Sack Watch would be a better title.

Suedesi Ban Watch.

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

This forums surely is a laughing stock just now over on RAWK & Bluemoon

 

[Skills]

I like this thread

 

[passing-wind]

I feel like this is a Ole sack watch thread masked as a Flick sack watch thread.

Clever by the OP.

OPs agenda is hilarious

 

[Cheimoon]

this is not a sack Ole thread.

Is this what you were implicitly going for?

 

[Suedesi]

It’san amazing thread, but obviously it flew over the Caftards collective heads.

 

[Blackwidow]

Let's maybe make it to a "Who is Hansi Flick"-thread first...

A good article about him in the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/14/sports/soccer/bayern-barcelona-champions-league.html

 

[Lord SInister]

I second this.

What?

 

[RashyForPM]

Yeah this is a shit thread.

It is. Flick is going nowhere fast, especially if he wins the treble in his first 7 months. I thought he was caught up in a sudden scandal or something.

Stupid thread.

Read that the other day - after all it's my hone paper - really interesting article

 

[GhastlyHun]

OP is getting a lot of flak but isn't actually wrong at the core. I'm sure Flick will remain in a tenuous position for at least the next season, treble or no treble. Our results and dressing room will be under close scrutiny, and when things deteriorate anywhere (and seriously, how can they stay the same, let alone improve?) the focus will be on how he deals with it and whether he can steady the ship.
So the point in time to create this thread may look silly, but it will be here sooner rather than later.

Oh come on. It's not like Bayern's leadership are that perfectionist, remember that Kovac guy? Flick has proven that he is a capable head coach, from now on he operates on the usual "you win the league you stay, you (look like you) don't win the league and you get sacked" basis.

Ancelotti was sacked for playing shit in the CL and for getting on the wrong side of our best players while being just 3 points from the top of the league. Also Kovac was under fire early on and would probably have been sacked earlier if Uli hadn't been stubbornly defending his mistake of appointing him.
